If you enjoy games like Rust or DayZ, The Forest or The Infected- you'll probably like Rem Survival. You'll find all of the typical survival game mechanics- hunger, thirst, sanity- in this title, spread out in an open world with the usual array of enemies & environmental features. Folks will be happy to know that it can be played in both local co-op and online via a server, as both PvP and PvE. It skews more similar to something like 7D2D with the quests, clan system, and skill & attribute trees.
Overall a good title; just be prepared to deal with the usual array of early access blips and quirks. The developer seems devoted to the title & very active in Discord - and the game has a passionate fan base. Unfortunately, updates have slowed down considerably since the start of the game, perhaps because adding new features is becoming less common. I'll investigate sometime shortly and update this, so keep an eye on the Notes tab for the changelog.
